One wonders what your mom was saying, focusing on you rather than the photographer...

I did a practice run of my makeup today for the wedding I'm in this weekend, so I figured I should take advantage of it and snap a picture wherein I don't look crazy or high (BLS, anyone?). I was due for a new FB picture anyway. In my natural habitat (the sofa):

I love this shirt. Fortunately for me, the dress I have to wear is decidedly not ugly. No poofy sleeves or strangely placed bows or anything! The heels are stupid high and I'm stupid tall and it's outdoors, so I'm pretty much just hoping I can make my way down the aisle (picture a new baby colt taking its first awkward steps) without falling on my face. Or passing out while standing still in one place, as I have been known to do. Scary!

I dunno, Severian. I know you don't mean anything bad by it, but that painting kind of implies that St. Severus stood around his study in a bathrobe, staring off into space...

Well, what can I say? Even Patriarchs have to relax and smell the roses every once in a while :

May St. Severus and His Holiness pray for us all!

From my youth have many passions warred against me, but do Thou Thyself defend and save me, O Saviour.

Cool Pic Michal! I graduated highschool in the late 80's. Your attire, the quite confidence of your body language, and even your physical appearance is reminiscent of someone I once new. It was a nice flashback to have this morning. Thanks for posting.

Wonderful picture --------------------------------------------------------------------------Considering the wisdom, knowledge, and understanding I often read on this web site the young age of so many of you is amazing to me. Y'all are blessed. Glory be to God.

It serves me well as a very humbling experience

There are heathens that live with more virtue than I. The devil himself believes Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Neither of these things truly makes me Christian.

Don't let the insults bother you. Heck, if I was in the shape you were in, I'd post more pics of myself too! Good for you bro. Keep working hard and keep us updated on your football (soccer) career.

Thanks Gebre, you are a good friend, and you helped me calm down. Soccer is going well for me, I will actually be in your neck of the woods for a game in a few weeks.

I apologize to Zeal and Gabriel, I shouldn't have got so fiery, I had a bad day yesterday, but that isn't an excuse I'm sorry. I don't mean to look selfobsessed, I just use this site like Facebook, and I shouldn't. Please forgive me.

The following is not a picture of me. However, the thread is not titled "what do the users on this site look like," but rather "what does everyone look like?" In an attempt to answer this question I present here two more people (my grandparents), to help get closer to the goal of knowing what "everyone" looks like
